It means precisely that karat/percentage. In the case of 14 karat, 58.5% pure. I believe the statistic is, if it's not assayed to be "plumb", it can be as much as 2.1% under/over.
A 375 marking is a gold marking; it indicates 9K gold. You can find this by multiplying .375 by 24 (since there are 24 karats in pure gold). Visit the link below for more details about gold markings.
its is 24 carat gold or 100% pure gold ring. But is unlikely to be , no one make 24 carat gold ring
I have a 9ct gold ring (with pink sapphires) which has this marking on it, it is made by Angus & Coote jewellers. **375 stamp means 9ct gold - 37.5% pure gold, or 375 parts per 1000. This can be stamped on white gold or yellow gold. 585 is 14ct gold, 750 is 18ct, and 1000 is 24ct or PURE GOLD. Guessing AC16 is Angus & Cootes stamp.
It is not known who invented the plumb-line or plumb-bob; there is evidence that it has been in use since biblical times and archaeologists haveÊunearthed what they think are plumb gaugingÊtoolsÊin Ancient Egypt.
YES. Level is interpruted to be horizontal and plumb vertical. Now, most levels have a plumb level and can be used in the vertical position. this is stil however checking for plumb and not level. Hope this helps Terry
